Low Friction Bottom Bracket Designed so that the bearings rest on the axle of the crank, these BBs provide a straight load to the bearings, which means your BB will last longer. This also allows us to make the Prime Threaded BB with tighter tolerances, so it runs smoother with less friction. This means you'll require less effort to make it up that hill or sprint for the line. To keep our Threaded BB running smoother for longer, we use special seals that keep water out of the bearings. We use multiple smaller seals, which reduces friction and provides a better barrier against moisture and dirt. Our bearings themselves are manufactured to precision and packed with slick, waterproof grease. All of the above combine to make the Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket the ideal choice for riders who want the best from their bike components. Please note: BSA & ITA options available, so please ensure you select the correct item from the drop down.
This Shimano EW-SD50 cable is required to connect the junction (either SM-JC40 external or SM-JC41 internal) to the shifters, rear derailleur, front derailleur, battery and to the handlebar battery indicator junction box. In an Ultegra Di2 system, there is a fully removable individual Shimano SD50 E-Tube cable system from the battery indicator junction box enabling fine-tuning with the correct cable length to each component for easy and tidy fitment. The removal of traditional mechanical cables in favour of electrical wires not only eliminates poor shifting caused by contaminates, corrosion and stretching but provides effortless gear shifts. Compatibility: E-Tube wires are compatible with 6770 Ultegra 10-Speed Di2, 6870 Ultegra 11-Speed Di2, 9070 Dura Ace 11-Speed and all modern Shimano Di2 components that use the E-Tube connections.
This Shimano BB92 bottom bracket features cups that are made from a fibre reinforced polymer material, which reduces the risk of frame noise and damage. It includes left/right-hand cups, an inner cover and inner O-rings. Manufacturer's Part Number: BB9241B Black 41mm
These Shimano carbon pads will breathe new life into your Dura-Ace brake calipers so you can ride down descents faster and confidently brake a bit later for the bends. Please Note: Not suitable for use on aluminium or other metallic type rims.
Keeping you in full control of the ride, this fantastic component is engineered to perfectly match the needs and the riding styles of individual mountain bikers. It features the latest component engineering and some of the finest Shimano technologies available to set a new benchmark for all cross-country racers and trail riders. This is the ultimate choice of upgrade for riders who want to benefit from superior shifting performance without any unnecessary weight holding you back. Technologies: Dyna-Sys: SHIMANO’s next generation 10-speed MTB drivetrain. SHIMANO presents the drivetrain technology for mountain bikes: DYNA-SYS. This revolutionary technology uses a 10-speed cassette, but that is not the only feature of this system. Highlight is a completely redesigned drivetrain that creates real added benefits for the rider. It’s not only an extra gear… It’s about closer gear ratios for a smoother shifting performance and improved power transfer. It’s about riding optimized gear combinations that improve efficiency and durability. It’s all about performance: DYNA-SYS offers a more stable drivetrain for any type of rider! Sil-Tec: SHIMANO’s ultra-low friction surface treatment. Superior to simple coating, SIL-TEC is an advanced plating process that improves system performance through the use of embedded fluorine particles. SIL-TEC products run smoother and wear longer in all conditions. Instant Release: INSTANT RELEASE shifting replaces the two-stage click and release shifting you are familiar with. INSTANT RELEASE shifting releases cable as soon the lever is activated, resulting in the quickest possible gear changes. Whether it is an upshift with a top normal rear derailleur or a downshift with low normal rear derailleur a quicker shift is always a better shift. Multi Release: Previous shifting systems shifted faster in one direction than the other. Choosing top normal or low normal always meant sacrificing shifting speed in one direction. Now with MULTI RELEASE you can release shift two gears in one stroke. The result - the fastest possible shifting in both directions regardless of rear derailleur choice. SP41: With OT-SP41 the entire length of the outer casing is pre-lubricated with a special silicone grease for quick and precise shifting performance. OT-SP41 maximally reduces the inner cable friction to provide quick response to operations and easy/effortless shifting. Moreover, power loss due to delay in shifting and fatigue by shifting especially when you ride on the terrain with many ups and downs as well as a long distance is also reduced. 8 color options are also available for outer casing to meet many requests. 2-Way Release: The RAPIDFIRE PLUS shifter release lever is commonly called a trigger because it is operated like a pistol, by pulling toward the grip. The release lever of RAPIDFIRE PLUS shifters from SHIMANO ALIVIO to XTR can be operated in this same manner but adds the ability to activate a release shift by pushing with the thumb. Rapidfire Plus: Mountain bikers have used RAPIDFIRE PLUS since 1985. RAPIDFIRE PLUS is still a winning choice from a wide range of riders from XC racers to freeriders. RAPIDFIRE PLUS is suited to quick shifting, giving riders the ability to downshift three gears in one stroke. RAPIDFIRE PLUS shifters from DEORE to XTR all feature 2WAY-RELEASE, which means release shifts by pull of the index finger or push of the thumb.
